Two identical nuclei `A` and `B` of the same radioactive element undergo `beta^(-)` decay. `A` emits a `beta^(-)` particle and changes to `A'`. `B` emits a `beta^(-)` particle and then a `gamma`-photon immediately afterwards, and changes to `B`.

A

A' and B' have the same atomic number and mass number

B

A' and B' have the same atomic number nut different mass numbers

C

A' and B' have different atomic numbers but the same mass number

D

A' and B' are isotopes.
